Ivan Ivanovich Shishkin
13.01.1832 - 20.03.1898
Russia, Russian Empire
Ivan Ivanovich Shishkin (russian: Ива́н Ива́нович Ши́шкин) was an outstanding Russian landscape painter of the 19th century, nicknamed "the king of the forest" by his contemporaries for his ability to convey with photographic accuracy every element of nature depicted in the picture. Ivan Shishkin is characterized by attention to every detail, the absolute truthfulness of the depicted and epic scope. Shishkin scrupulously painted every blade of grass or leaf on impressive-sized canvases, preserving the beauty of his native land for posterity. And, although at the time of his work, the fashion for realism began to give way to a new trend, impressionism, Shishkin remained true to himself and his gift as a painter.
